Storm clean up - Te Atiawa Park playground and Wesley Knight dog park

The Team from Kāpiti Coast District Council

💨 It sure has been windy this week! Our Operations and Arboriculture teams have been kept busy responding to storm debris and damage in our open spaces and parks.

This week we'll be trimming the large macrocarpa tree in Te Atiawa Park playground, beside the BMX track, to reduce its height and the risk of windthrow. The BMX track and playground will be closed Friday 29 September, 8am–4.30pm for this important mahi.

Our teams will also be clearing away storm debris on Friday at Wesley Knight dog park on Ocean Road, Paraparaumu Beach.

Ngā mihi for your patience while we complete this work. If you see anything like this that you think needs our attention, you can log a service request through our FREE Antenno app 👉🏼 www.kapiticoast.govt.nz...

Poll: Would you participate in local initiatives aimed at stopping plastic from reaching our oceans?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Volunteers will be scouring the foreshore, riverbanks, and islands for rubbish on Saturday the 13th as part of the Clean Up the Hutt event.

This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.

We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚

Want the details? The Post has you covered.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
